From current owner:
I am selling my 1971 Corvette. I purchased this car about two years ago from a
dealer in Massachusetts. It was delivered and stored in my garage the entire time.
My intentions were to restore the car for my wife but now she says she wants my
Camaro instead. I am only hoping to get what I have in the car back out of the sale.
I have only driven the car once around the neighborhood and with the exception
of replacing the fuel lines to the gas tank that were leaking, I have done nothing
else to it.
The previous owner says the engine was replaced shortly before I purchased it. It
runs well and is a 1975 model 350 per the numbers on the block. The engine appears
clean and has a very new looking carburetor. It definitely has a cam in it but still
idles with no issues. The oil pressure is very good at 65-70 pounds at idle. The
transmission appears to be the original wide ratio Muncie 4 speed and did not
display any problems or shifting issues at all, nor did the rest of the drive line. The
transmission is attached to an inline 4 speed racing shifter which is kind of hard to
find as an aftermarket piece but also takes some getting used to. I will include a
stock shifter and linkage with the sale in case you want to change it back. The
front and rear suspension appear to be original and in decent condition for their
age. One thing I did notice on the test drive is that the car came with no factory
power steering and is a bear to turn corners in. I would definitely add a power
steering kit if I were keeping it. The brakes are working ok and did not display
any issues.
The body appears to be in decent condition overall. I lightly sanded the primer
down to check out what was underneath. The first thing I noticed was that someone
had replaced the original front end glass with a 69 front. This was ok with me at
the time since I find it more attractive but of course it is up to the new owner
whether to retain it or not. I did not notice any damage to the front suspension or
frame and the panels seem to line up well which leads me to believe the car has
not been in an accident. It appears that the swap was done well. I have the front
bumper and most of the body moldings. The original mirrors were missing when I
got the car. The original colors were classic white exterior with a red interior.
Someone has dyed the interior black prior to my buying the car. The windows and
windshield are all in good condition as are the t-tops.
The interior is intact but shows some wear and is in need of a complete replacement
if you plan to restore the car. It is ok for a driver though while you restore it.
The wheels are the original rallys with the derby caps. The tires will need replacement.
The car has a new stainless chambered exhaust system from the exhaust manifolds
back. I will include a set of used chrome Hooker side pipe headers, side tubes and
new mufflers if the bidding goes past 7,000 dollars which is my reserve price.
A couple of issues with the car include a missing cover for the windshield wiper
channel but the wipers are functioning. The car was ordered without AC originally
and it will be up to the buyer to add this option if they choose. The car came with
a bill of sale and a previous Rhode Island registration. I was told that Rhode Island
does not require a title, only a registration so it will be up to the buyer to register
the vehicle and obtain a new title if they are required to. I will provide a bill of sale
and the Rhode Island registration with the sale.
This car appears to be a good candidate for a restoration and is running and
drivable as it sits. The older Corvettes are getting hard to find in this condition to
be restored and that is why I bought it originally. I wish you all the best of luck
bidding on her and want her to go to a good home and be appreciated.
